The fundamental thing I believe about literature, and this is just from my own experience so I’ll just speak for myself, is that it opens me up to other people. It makes me more compassionate. I don’t think a lot about this, really, so I don’t want to say that

I was influenced by everything, which is why I didn’t want a mission or a decided aesthetic. Those things are really limiting. Missions especially turn me off to other presses. A mission will fail. I wanted something less qualitative. If I was going to lose money I wouldn’t have felt I failed.
